added to contain IFR aircraft arriving 

and departing the airport. 

Lastly, the action updates the 

geographic coordinates in the Class E2 

and Class E5 text headers. The 

coordinates are updated to ‘‘lat. 

48°15′35′′ N, long. 103°45′02′′ W,’’ to 

match the FAA database. 

FAA Order 7400.11, Airspace 

Designations and Reporting Points, is

Regulatory Notices and Analyses 

The FAA has determined that this 

regulation only involves an established 

body of technical regulations for which 

frequent and routine amendments are 

necessary to keep them operationally 

current, is non-controversial, and 

unlikely to result in adverse or negative 

comments. It, therefore: (1) Is not a 

‘‘significant regulatory action’’ under 

Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a 

‘‘significant rule’’ under DOT 

Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 

FR 11034; February 26, 1979); and (3) 

does not warrant preparation of a 

regulatory evaluation as the anticipated 

impact is so minimal. Since this is a 

routine matter that will only affect air 

traffic procedures and air navigation, it 

is certified that this rule, when 

promulgated, would not have a 

significant economic impact on a 

substantial number of small entities 

under the criteria of the Regulatory 

Flexibility Act. 

Environmental Review 

The FAA has determined that this 

action qualifies for categorical exclusion 

under the National Environmental 

Policy Act in accordance with FAA 

Order 1050.1F, ‘‘Environmental 

Impacts: Policies and Procedures,’’ 

paragraph 5–6.5a. This airspace action 

is not expected to cause any potentially 

significant environmental impacts, and 

no extraordinary circumstances exist 

that warrant the preparation of an 

environmental assessment.

Extension of Canadian Area Navigation 

Routes Q–902 and Q–811; Alaska 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: This action amends Federal 

airways, A–15, V–444, J–502, and J–511 

in Alaska. It also establishes an 

extension of two Canadian Area 

Navigation Q routes, Q–902, and Q–811. 

The modifications are necessary due to 

the decommissioning of the Burwash 

Non-Directional Beacon (NDB) in Yukon 

Territory, Canada, which provides 

navigation guidance for portions of the 

affected routes. The Burwash NDB was 

decommissioned effective March 26, 

2020 due to ongoing maintenance 

problems and logistic issues. 

DATES: Effective date 0901 UTC, October 

7, 2021. The Director of the Federal 

Register approves this incorporation by 

reference action under 1 CFR part 51, 

subject to the annual revision of FAA 

Order 7400.11 and publication of 

conforming amendments.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Authority for This Rulemaking 

The FAA’s authority to issue rules 

regarding aviation safety is found in 

Title 49 of the United States Code. 

Subtitle I, Section 106 describes the 

authority of the FAA Administrator. 

Subtitle VII, Aviation Programs, 

describes in more detail the scope of the 

agency’s authority. This rulemaking is 

promulgated under the authority 

described in Subtitle VII, Part A, 

Subpart I, Section 40103. Under that 

section, the FAA is charged with 

prescribing regulations to assign the use 

of the airspace necessary to ensure the 

safety of aircraft and the efficient use of 

airspace. This regulation is within the 

scope of that authority as it modifies the 

air traffic service route structure in the 

National Airspace System as necessary 

to preserve the safe and efficient flow of 

air traffic. 

History 

The FAA published a notice of 

proposed rulemaking for Docket No. 

FAA–2020–0567 in the Federal Register 

(85 FR 38799; June 29, 2020) amending 

Federal airways A–15, V–444, J–502, 

and J–511 in Alaska. A supplemental 

notice of proposed rulemaking was also 

published for Docket No. FAA–2020– 

0567 in the Federal Register (85 FR 

60108 September 24, 2020) amending 

Federal airways J–502, and J–511 in 

Alaska, and establishing two Q routes, 

Q–902, and Q–811. Interested parties 

were invited to participate in this 

rulemaking effort by submitting written 

comments on the proposal. No 

comments were received. 

Colored and Alaskan VOR Federal 

airways are published in paragraph 

6009 and 6010(b), Jet routes are 

published in paragraph 2004, and 

Canadian Area Navigation Routes are 

published in paragraph 2007 of FAA 

Order 7400.11E dated July 21, 2020, and 

effective September 15, 2020, which is 

incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 

71.1. The Federal airways, jet routes, 

and Canadian Area Navigation routes 

listed in this document will be 

subsequently published in the Order. 

Differences From the NPRM 

In the supplemental NPRM published 

in the Federal Register (85 FR 60108; 

September 24, 2020) proposal section 

addressing the establishment of Q–811 

and Q–902, they were referred to as 

Alaskan Air Navigational routes, which 

was stated in error. This same error was 

made in the proposed amendment 

section. Q–811 and Q–902 are 

extensions of Canadian Area Navigation 

routes that extend into Alaskan airspace 

and should be referenced under 

paragraph 2007. This rule corrects that 

editorial error in the amendment 

section. 

Availability and Summary of 

Documents for Incorporation by 

Reference 

This document amends FAA Order 

7400.11E, Airspace Designations and 

Reporting Points, dated July 21, 2020, 

and effective September 15, 2020. FAA 

Order 7400.11E is publicly available as 

listed in the ADDRESSES section of this 

document. FAA Order 7400.11E lists 

Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas, 

air traffic service routes, and reporting 

points. 

The Rule 

This action amends 14 CFR part 71 by 

modifying Federal airways A–15, and 

V–444, jet routes J–502, and J–511, and 

Canadian Area Navigation Routes 

Q–811, and Q–902. The airway actions 

are described below. 

A–15: A–15 currently extends 

between the Ethelda, BC, Canada, NDB 

and the Delta Junction, AK, NDB. This 

action removes the segment between the 

Intersection of Sisters Island 331°, and 

Whitehorse 207° radials and Beaver 

Creek, YT, NDB. The unaffected 

portions of the existing route remain as 

charted. 

V–444: V–444 currently extends 

between the Barrow, AK, NDB and the 

Burwash, YT, NDB. This action removes 

the segment between the intersection of 

the Northway 138°, and Gulkana 079° 

and Burwash, YT, NDB. The unaffected 

portions of the existing route remain as 

charted. The portion within Canada is 

excluded. 

J–502: J–502 currently extends 

between Seattle, WA and Kotzebue, AK. 

This action removes the segment 

between the Sister Island, AK, VORTAC 

and the Northway, AK, VORTAC. The 

unaffected portions of the existing route 

would remain as charted. 

J–511: J–511 currently extends 

between Dillingham, AK and Burwash 

Landing, YT, Canada, NDB. This action 

removes the segment between the 

Gulkana VORTAC and the Burwash 

Landing, YT, Canada. The unaffected 

portions of the existing route would 

remain as charted. 

Q–811: This action extends Canadian 

Area Navigation Route Q–811 to overly 

the existing J–511 to mitigate the route 

segments that cannot be supported by 

ground navigational facilities. Q–811 

starts at Dillingham, AK and terminates 

at the newly established waypoint of 

IGSOM, which was established to 

replace the Burwash NDB, excluding 

that airspace in Canada. 

Q–902: This action extends Canadian 

Area Navigation Route Q–902 to overlay 

the existing J–502 in its entirety, to 

mitigate route segments that cannot be 

supported by ground navigation 

facilities. Q–902 starts at Seattle, WA 

and terminates at Kotzebue, AK, 

excluding that airspace in Canada.

Regulatory Notices and Analyses 

The FAA has determined that this 

regulation only involves an established 

body of technical regulations for which 

frequent and routine amendments are 

necessary to keep them operationally 

current. It, therefore: (1) Is not a 

‘‘significant regulatory action’’ under 

Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a 

‘‘significant rule’’ under Department of 

Transportation (DOT) Regulatory 

Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034; 

February 26, 1979); and (3) does not 

warrant preparation of a regulatory 

evaluation as the anticipated impact is 

so minimal. Since this is a routine 

matter that only affects air traffic 

procedures and air navigation, it is 

certified that this rule, when 

promulgated, does not have a significant 

economic impact on a substantial 

number of small entities under the 

criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act. 

Environmental Review 

The FAA has determined that this 

airspace action of amending of Federal 

airways A–15, and V–444, jet routes 

J–502, and J–511, and Canadian Area 

Navigation Routes Q–811, and Q–902 

qualifies for categorical exclusion under 

the National Environmental Policy Act 

(42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.) and its 

implementing regulations at 40 CFR part 

1500, and in accordance with FAA 

Order 1050.1F, Environmental Impacts:

5–6.5a, which categorically excludes

designate or modify classes of airspace 

areas, airways, routes, and reporting 

points (see 14 CFR part 71, Designation 

of Class A, B, C, D, and E Airspace 

Areas; Air Traffic Service Routes; and 

Reporting Points). As such, this action 

is not expected to result in any 

potentially significant environmental 

impacts. In accordance with FAA Order 

1050.1F, paragraph 5–2 regarding 

Extraordinary Circumstances, the FAA 

has reviewed this action for factors and

requiring further analysis. The FAA has 

determined that no extraordinary 

circumstances exist that warrant 

preparation of an environmental 

assessment or environmental impact 

study.

Amendment of V–25, V–27, V–494, 

V–108, V–301, and T–257 in the Vicinity 

of Santa Rosa, CA 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule; correction. 

SUMMARY: This action corrects a final 

rule published by the FAA in the 

Federal Register on June 4, 2021 that 

amends VHF Omnidirectional Range 

(VOR) Federal airways V–25, V–27, 

V–494, V–108, V–301, and United States 

Area Navigation route (RNAV) T–257 in 

the vicinity of Santa Rosa, CA. This 

action makes an editorial correction to 

include the Mendocino VOR, which was 

inadvertently deleted from the legal 

description for V–494. Amendments are 

due to the planned decommissioning of 

the Santa Rosa, CA VOR/Distance 

Measuring Equipment (DME) navigation 

aid (NAVAID) which provides 

navigation guidance for portions of the 

affected airways. The Santa Rosa VOR/ 

DME is being decommissioned as part of 

the FAA’s VOR Minimum Operational 

Network (MON) program.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

History 

The FAA published a notice of 

proposed rulemaking for Docket No. 

FAA–2020–0642 in the Federal Register 

(85 FR 47928; August 7, 2020) and a 

final rule (86 FR 29946; June 4, 2021), 

amending VOR Federal airways V–25, 

V–27, V–494, V–108, V–301, and RNAV 

route T–257 in the vicinity of Santa 

Rosa, CA, due to the planned 

decommissioning of the Santa Rosa, CA, 

VOR/DME NAVAID. Subsequent to the 

publication, it was determined that 

Mendocino, CA, VOR was missing from 

the legal description of V–494. This rule 

corrects that error by including 

Mendocino, CA, VOR in its appropriate 

place in the V–494 legal description. 

This is an editorial change only and 

does not alter the alignment of the route 

as shown on aeronautical charts, and 

does not affect the use of the route by 

aircraft. 

VOR Federal airways are published in 

paragraph 6010(a) of FAA Order 

7400.11E dated July 21, 2020, and 

effective September 15, 2020, which is 

incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 

71.1. The VOR Federal airway listed in 

this document will be subsequently 

published in the Order.

[Docket No. USCG–2021–0404] 

Cancellation of Obsolete Navigation 

and Inspection Circulars 

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS. 

ACTION: Announcement of decision. 

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard announces 

the cancellation of several obsolete 

Navigation and Vessel Inspection 

Circulars (NVIC). NVICs are guidance 

documents issued by the Coast Guard 

that do not have the force of law. 

However, NVICs ensure Coast Guard 

inspections and other regulatory actions 

conducted by field personnel are 

complete and consistent. Similarly, the 

marine industry and the general public 

rely on NVICs as a way to assess how 

the Coast Guard will enforce certain 

regulations or conduct various marine 

safety programs. Thus, it is important 

that the public is made aware when 

NVICs are cancelled so as to avoid 

confusion. 

DATES: July 15, 2021.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background and Purpose 

A Navigation and Vessel Inspection 

Circular (NVIC) provides detailed 

guidance about the enforcement or 

compliance with a certain Federal 

marine safety regulations and Coast 

Guard marine safety programs. While 

NVIC’s are non-directive, meaning that 

they do not have the force of law, they 

are important ‘‘tools’’ for complying
